--------------- for the 3rd Cloud Computing on Infrastructure as a Service and its Applications special session at the 23rd Euromicro International Conference on Parallel, Distributed and network-based Processing Location ======== Turku, Finland Conference dates: 4-6th of March 2015. Scope ===== Cloud Computing covers a broad range of distributed computing principles from infrastructure (e.g distributed storage, reconfigurable networks) to new programming platforms (e.g MS Azure, Google Appe Engine), and internet based applications. Particularly, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Cloud systems – such as Amazon EC2, Rackspace or Google Compute Engine - allow the dynamic creation, destruction and management of virtual machines (VMs) on virtualized clusters. IaaS Clouds provide a high-level of abstraction to the end user, one that allows the creation of on-demand services through a pay as you go infrastructure combined with elasticity. This special session on Cloud Computing is intended to be a forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences on the use of Cloud Computing technologies and applications with compute and data intensive workloads. The special session also aims at presenting the challenges and opportunities offered by the development of academic Cloud Computing solutions – such as OpenNebula, OpenStack or Eucalyptus – themselves, as well as case studies in applications of Cloud Computing. The general venue will be a good occasion to share, learn, and discuss the latest results in this field of research. The special session program will include presentations of peer-reviewed papers. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Virtualization technologies and their effects on IaaS solutions, - Incorporating beyond-CPU virtualization (e.g. I/O, GPU) aspects to cloud infrastructures, - Virtual Machine scheduling and management algorithms, - Operational challenges in private, hybrid and public IaaS systems, - Cost and pricing models in virtualized infrastructures, - Enterprise level infrastructure clouds, - Solutions that meet demands of HPC clouds, - Federative aspects of hybrid (mixed private-public) clouds, - Novel IaaS architectures, platforms and applications, - Virtual Appliance storage management (e.g. caching, repositories, marketplaces), - Virtual Machine migration techniques, - Big Data and Infrastructure clouds, - Security and Privacy aspects of data management in Clouds, - Cloud Computing for scientific applications, - Performance evaluation, modeling and prediction, - Programming models and tools, - Cloud computing for compute and/or data intensive applications, - Workflows on the Cloud, - CPU and GPU Clouds, Desktop Grids, - Cloud Computing resource management, - Cloud Computing deployment models, - Interoperability solutions for multi-Cloud and federated management, - Cloud storage and I/O. Important dates =============== Paper submission (extended): 22nd September 2014 Acceptance notification: 25th Oct 2014 Camera ready due: 10th Nov 2014 Conference: 4th - 6th Mar 2015 Session Chair ============= Gabor Kecskemeti, MTA SZTAKI and University of Miskolc, Hungary Session Co-Chairs ================= Thierry Delaitre, University of Westminster, United Kingdom Attila Kertesz, MTA SZTAKI and University of Szeged, Hungary Programme Committee =================== Paul Heinzlreiter, Risc Software, Austria Eduardo Huedo, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain Attila Marosi, MTA SZTAKI, Hungary Christine Morin, INRIA, France Ariel Oleksiak, Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center, Poland Simon Ostermann, University of Innsbruck, Austria Ivan Rodero, Rutgers University, USA Gabor Terstyanszky, University of Westminster, United Kingdom Massimo Villari, University of Messina, Italy Yi Wei, University of Notre Dame, USA Website for further information =============================== http://www.pdp2015.org/specialsessions/cloud/cloud.html |
